You know it's time

You know it's time to clean up your room when your mum keeps screaming at you to tidy up:

You know it's REALLY time to clean up your room when you stumble upon:








































































































































































































Which makes me wonder why cockroaches die on their backs. So I googled it out.




Cockroaches (and most other insects) are top heavy since they have bulky bodies and thin, long legs. When they die, their leg muscles contract, pulling them beneath the body causing it to tip over. It is possible for the dead animal to remain on its side, but usually with death comes involuntary twitching of the muscles causing the occurrence of ending up on its back more likely. Also if the roach dies while on a wall, it will fall and most likely end up on its back as well.



One day I'll clean up my room.
